I love sunflowers, do you?


Namaste friends,

Will you please (with a lot of emphasis) allow me to take you to the world my pen has inked? A world that is not so pragmatic- an escape probably. Would you escape with me to a world that’s a little different from what you perceived it to be? Think no more, I promise you will love it!

My name is Akanksha Sharma ‘Chetna’ and I love sunflowers, sunsets, and chocolates. I’ve been scribbling poetry since I was 10 and started inking officially, in my diary at 14. And writing became my therapy since a time-not-known!

This blog is my digital diary, my safe space. Yet, I open it to you for validation and constructive criticism. It shall remain my safe space, nonetheless. I’m chuffed to bits to have you here. Happy happy happy reading!


Hey, you!

This is me, Ak.

I have always been conflicted about my home state. For context, I was born in Bihar and brought up in Uttar Pradesh. So, I end up saying I belong to both UP & Bihar and inviting doubly critical looks. Nevertheless, literature and art have been an integral part of my upbringing. I am a recent graduate from Lady Shri Ram College for Women, interested in all things writing and debating ( I like to talk, yeah). If not writing or speaking, you’ll find me napping at odd hours.

That’s me, I hope to know you someday too. Until then, you can explore this blog and check out the anthologies I am a part of!

My best work is yet to come- subscribe to the blog so that you don’t miss it!
